Cumberland County Planning Department

In collaboration with the Cumberland Valley Visitors Bureau, Cumberland County Economic Development Corporation and the Capital Resource Conservation & Development Area Council, the Cumberland County Planning Department compiled and published a Local Food, Farm and Outdoor Attractions Guide for the Cumberland Valley. The project was intended to promote local agricultural operations and outdoor recreation locations within the Cumberland Valley, and to educate the public on the importance of agriculture and our abundant natural resources to the quality of life Cumberland County residents. The guide includes a directory of farmers markets, roadside stands, pick your own operations, farm-stays and other agri-tourism locations. In addition, the guide includes information on outdoor recreation opportunities available in Cumberland County.
